Learn to Code in Kotlin by Building an Android App – Mammoth Interactive

Salepage link: At HERE. Archive:

Hi! My name is Nimish Narang and I’ll be your instructor for this course. In this course we build build a fully functioning app from scratch. No experience is necessary – I will show you how to use the #1 platform for Android app development: Android Studio.

I will also teach you how to code from the very basics in Kotlin, the up and coming language that is exploding this year and is on the stretch to become even more popular than Java for Android programming.

The project of this course you will be able to use and add to your portfolio. You will gain the skillset to build many more Android apps.

You will learn how to build exciting and interactive UIs, one of the most important skills an app developer can have.

Together we will build custom adapters — these open up a whole new branch of UI elements.

Our to-do list app will be fully working and ready for us to use! Our product will be user-friendly, and this is a project you can put directly on your resume or build on to make even more apps. All source files will be included.
